Calcium Alpha-Ketoglutarate (Ca-AKG)

Calcium alpha-ketoglutarate, usually shortened to Ca-AKG, is the calcium salt of alpha-ketoglutaric acid — better known to biochemists as 2-oxoglutarate, one of the central intermediates of the tricarboxylic acid cycle. Salting the acid with calcium turns a hygroscopic, strongly acidic solid into a stable, free-flowing powder that is far easier to weigh, encapsulate and store, which is why nearly all research material is supplied in this form rather than as the free acid. 2-Oxoglutarate sits at a genuinely busy metabolic junction, playing critical roles in various biochemical processes.
